Hi,

I'm trying to use REST API of ACS 7.2 just like I was doing with the 5.2

I successfully retrieve a ticket

curl -X POST "http://test-gedi/alfresco/api/-default-/public/authentication/versions/1/tickets" -H  "accept: application/json" -H  "authorization: Basic SkMyMDUyMzY6VGFyZHlmZXJvbjgwbWch" -H  "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{  \"userId\": \"myuser\",  \"password\": \"mypassword!\"}"

Download

{  "entry": {    "id": "TICKET_864ca3ef4000c43701d275b7704c6b57ccf0e842",    "userId": "myuser" } }

then I code it in base64

But when I try to curl with this ticket (here is another one but)

curl  -X GET -H 'Accept: application/json' -H "Authorization: Basic VElDS0VUXzg2NGNhM2VmNDAwMGM0MzcwMWQyNzViNzcwNGM2YjU3Y2NmMGU4NDI=" "http://test-gedi/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-root-/children?maxItems=5"

I get a 401 error

<html><head>
</head><body><p>Login failed. Please try again.</p>
</body></html>

When I Try to activate

with this url

curl -X GET "http://test-gedi/alfresco/api/-default-/public/authentication/versions/1/tickets/-me-" -H  "accept: application/json" -H  "authorization: Basic SkMyMDUyMzY6VGFyZHlmZXJvbjgwbWch"

I get a maybe interesting error :

{  "error": {    "errorKey": "Ticket base authentication required.",    "statusCode": 400,    "briefSummary": "08050005 Ticket base authentication required.",    "stackTrace": "Pour des raisons de sécurité, le traçage de la pile n'est plus affiché, mais la propriété est conservée dans les versions précédente",    "descriptionURL": "https://api-explorer.alfresco.com"
  }
}

My code is perfectly working with 5.2 so I guess I missed a configuration somehow ..

It seems that authentification with ticket need to be activated/enable somewhere..

I'm user docker image ..

Could anybody help ?

thank you !

To resolve the authentication issue in Alfresco ACS 7.2, double-check the ticket encoding, verify ticket expiration, and ensure ticket-based authentication is enabled in the docker image configuration.

Thanks for the answer

That is exactly what I'm trying to do ..

double-check the ticket encoding -> base64, checked ok

verify ticket expiration -> one year

and ensure ticket-based authentication is enabled in the docker image configuration -> I don't find anything in the docker image configuration related to this. How to enable ticket base authentication ???

I have exactly same issue when connecting from inside the alfresco container

when connecting from the production server (still in 5.2), it works and we can notice that there is no line with "WWW-Authenticate" in the answer

[root@capella classes]# curl -s   "http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/people/RS139234"  -H 'Authorization: Basic VElDS0VUX2IxODg2OTliYjc3ZDBmNjI0MGM3ZDBlOTZmNzhjMGM3NThkYzUxYzc=' -v
